Unsympathetic forces have taken selfish ad- vantage, and legislation has become necessary for the protection of childhood, some of the major instances being Child Labor laws, the children's Bureau, compulsory education, the C. C. C., and the N. Y. A. A part of this movement has been car- ried on by the P. T. A., the Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., the Girl and Boy Scout groups, and the great youth movements in other lands. The teachers and parents have a joint responsibility in seeing that justice is rendered to youth.

Names : of outstanding individuals should be remem- 0 bered in proportion to the amount of good : they accomplish. 0 All of us are historians to some de- , gree. From the time you entered the first 0 grade you have started a record that has been : added to and will continue to expand until 2 after you graduate from high school. The 1 L1- historical sketch of your progress becomes a 2 permanent record of the public schools and - , o is shaped by you alone. It is quite evident ' 'f 'K-q that your school career is an index to your O future success. I : Your serious concern should be to make 0 this record outstanding. Frequently it is : necessary to refer back to records of students : many years after the school record has been q closed. The important factor of your his- . torical sketch is that the record remains un- o changed after it is once made. You have no : opportunity to rewrite or change the record. : Everyone has an equal opportunity to gain knowledge. Your success is going to be 9 measured more by how well you use this knowledge rather than by its accumulation. Char- : acteristics of friendliness, industry, cheerfulness, cooperation, honesty, and truthfulness have 0 much to do with your success and enjoyment of life. : How successful you will be after leaving school cannot be definitely pro- U phesied and can be estimated only in how well you have provided yourself with : those tools of knowledge and success. The extent to which you can apply these : tools will truly measure your success. 0 LOUIS SCHULTZ. : Mr. Schultz was elected superintendent of our local school system in the : spring of 1935, having served as the principal of Central from 1928 to 1935. : Formerly he had taught for three and one-half years in our Manual Arts de- o partment, being made principal upon the resignation of Mr. R. L. Davidson, jr. : His previous teaching experience was gained at Morning Sun, Iowag Flat River, Missourig and Pontiac, Illinois. : As preparation for his work he studied at Southeast Missouri State Teach- ' ers College where he received his degree of bachelor of Science in Education. : His graduate work was done at the University of Iowa, from which institution : he was granted a Master of Arts degree and several honors in the Department o of Education for outstanding work. : This year the schools of Cape Girardeau have made very definite progress l under Mr. Schultz's supervision. He has maintained a harmonous efficiency : and a fine spirit of cooperation throughout the system. His amiable and help- n ' ful attitude has made him well-known and well-liked by both students and : teachers. : THE BOARD OF EDUCATION o Term Expires ' ur. B. Hua-h smith, Pi-ea. .... 1939 My, E.
